How do I prepare Horlicks?

Is this product suitable for vegans?

Horlicks is suitable for vegetarians but not vegans as it is traditionally made with milk derivatives and malted grains.

What is the shelf life of an unopened package?

Can I add milk to my Horlicks?

While the instructions specify adding hot water, many people enjoy adding milk or a combination of milk and water for a richer taste. Experiment to find your preferred mix.

Troubleshooting

Powder not dissolving completely

Ensure the water is hot enough and stir vigorously until fully dissolved. Try adding a small amount of cold water first to create a paste, then add hot water.

Drink is too thick or too thin

Adjust the amount of Horlicks powder or hot water according to your preference. Use 3-4 heaped teaspoons for a standard consistency.

Product clumps or hardens in the container

Ensure the container is tightly sealed after each use and stored in a cool, dry place. Moisture can cause clumping.
